Yeah! I upgraded to a new 2008 IS350 over the weekend. It was the 2nd to last 2008 and got the love with ML Audio and Navi will all kinds of other stock things (rear window visor, auto wipers, memory seats for driver and passenger, telescopic steering wheel, typical 18 inch wheels, etc etc) and only 25 miles on it. I'm happy!

I've jumped in and out of the 2006 IS250, 2007 IS350, 2007 IS250 and now 2008 IS350. I'm keeping it this time around!

Anyway, I traded the 2007 IS250 and with this I let go my full GFX Kit, Sports Pedals, F-Sport Intake, F-Sport Exhaust, Blue Illuminating Scuff Plates (but the new 2008 has the white ones anyway) and that was about it. I wouldn't part with my Lexus all weather mats or front window visor.

I have to start over.... soooooo back to sewell parts online... since they seem to have the best prices for the full GFX. WOOT!

Below are the ISs I've owned in the right order. I'll include the 2008 IS350 soon.

See below for pics of the ISs I've owned. This was by request - I'll add the 08 350 soon.

Must be makin stacks! But is there a reason why you downgraded to a 250 (taking that it's in order)?

The order was correct and the story goes like this:

2006 came around and I wanted the IS350. However, at the time I couldn't justify paying another 10k for the IS350 so I went with the 06 IS250 with Navi.

A year passed and I test drove the 07 IS350 and could really tell a big difference in power and handling. So, I decided to try and lease the 07 IS350 with the intent of owning it. A couple of months into the lease I figured out that I was going to pay far more for the car if i leased it so I jumped ship and downgraded to something that I'm embarassed to mention here so I won't.

Two weeks passed and I needed to go back to the IS. I loved the car so I managed to wiggle my way back into the 2007 IS250. I knew that I wanted the IS350 but again couldn't afford it at the time.

Two years passed and that brings us to April 2009. It was time to go back to the IS350. I managed to find a new 2008 with only 25 miles on it and the deal was great so I went with it. I'm back in the game and I love it. I'm keeping this IS350! That's certain....the 350 is very different from the 250.... pics will come later on... everything is stock for now.

Wow...you got the works this time around...I wished I found my car with ML..it was next to impossibe to find at the time for me. Did you do this on a whim??? I can't believe you let the dealer get all your goodies on a trade in

I didn't plan on purchasing. But the deal was too good to pass up. I just installed the F-Sport exhaust in March. LOL.
